Very cold and clear in the morning - -2-°C by the display thermometer down by the station. Later, iron-grey sky with dry cold, and some snow late in the afternoon.

Bright sun and an inch of snow on the ground in the morning.

More snow in the morning, but it didn't 'lay'.

Went out shopping - got caught in a blizzard on the bypass. Before the gritters came out it was horrendous - and very cold.

Half an inch to an inch of snow on the ground in the morning. Went out well wrapped up, expecting bus chaos, but at the bus stop footprints showed people had successfully got on a bus! In fact journey only took 40 minutes - as timetabled. Obviously half term far more influential than weather.

Heavy snow at times today, but none of it 'layed'.

Snow at times today, though it didn't result in anything more than another light covering.

Very light covering of snow in the afternoon.

A little warmer today. Bright and sunny till late in the afternoon; a few flakes of snow in the morning.

Cold again and very still.

Weather very cold again. Keeping me warm were an unusual number of mutual gazes from attractive people.

Weather dry and icy cold with NW wind.

Cold, windy day, turning bright, colder and windier later. Very much my sort of weather.

Warmer, and rainy.

Little bit warmer, some more hazy sunshine. This week is the equivalent of the sloping sunlight one gets about August 20th. On Monday, looking across the lake, I thought of that oddly warm February 23rd we spent fishing in the park in 1985.

Cold, still and foggy.

Cold and clear. Walked round lake at lunchtime for first time this year. Hazy sunshine coming across the water, like an intimation of summer.

Calm and grey - in the afternoon a hint of that 'spring is coming' vegetation smell. In the evening very calm indeed with a layer of fog, just about moving in very, very slow eddies.
